Ever wonder what it would be like to live in a world without sin? Or what it would feel like to be without a sin nature? Children of God will experience this new life someday in the New Jerusalem. We’ll live under new laws of gravity and a new source of light—since God Himself will live with us, and He will be our light. This all takes place after the Millennium, after the Great White Throne judgment. Get your hope set on God in this study of all things new.
To everyone who thinks God will someday weigh their good works against their bad works and give them a pass into heaven, this study of Revelation 20 is sobering and honest. If your name isn’t in the Book of Life, if you haven’t received God’s gift of salvation, then you will face the Great White Throne Judgment, where no one is saved. Believe on Jesus Christ today while God still gives you opportunity.
In a perfect world, would people follow the Lord? Our study in Revelation 20 says no. The Millennium is a time of testing people under ideal conditions—perfect government, perfect health, perfect peace. But when Satan is released, a great company follow him, revealing the terrible state of man’s heart against God. Study now the last rebellion of Satan and man against God. You already know who wins.
In the study of eschatology (the end times), the dividing ground for the three major schools of interpretation is the Millennial Kingdom. When does it occur? Is it literal or figurative? Who is involved? Most agree that the Millennium is the final testing of man under ideal conditions. Dr. McGee explores this ground in this informative study of Revelation 20.
This is the moment we’ve been waiting for—out of the clouds, coming in great glory, the Lord Jesus Christ returns to earth on a white war horse. Behind Him are the angel armies. He’s come to put down unrighteousness. Everyone trembles at the ominous sight of Him. Find out what happens to the armies of the earth assembled at Armageddon with just one word from the Lord. It’s better than the best movie, for sure.
You’re invited to a wedding! The Bridegroom, Jesus Christ, loves the church, His bride, and gave Himself for her. Now He receives her as His own and we will know Christ, really know Him, for the first time. The marriage takes place in heaven, but picture the moment the door of heaven opens and the Groom and His bride come forth, ready to celebrate the Marriage Supper of the Lamb on earth. A glorious study!
Did you know the word “hallelujah” is an Old Testament word, only used once (here in Revelation 19) in the New Testament? It means “praise the Lord”—reserved for final victory in battle. That’s the right word to say here at the end of the Great Tribulation. We pause now and review the solemn path of the Tribulation in these last seven years.
Babylon’s destruction brought the world to mourning and weeping, but in heaven they held a celebration. The saints prayed for this; the prophets and apostles predicted it. God has exonerated His name. Like a stone that makes a big splash and then disappears beneath the waves, Babylon comes to an end. The city that killed God’s people is now slain.
People often ask when God will judge crooked politics and corporations. Today is the day for Babylon to be destroyed in the Tribulation. God said it would happen, and in a matter of one hour, the most influential metroplex on the planet is reduced to ashes—fit only for a place for demons to be imprisoned during the Millennium. This is an awesome win in this ongoing drama that sets up Christ’s earthly kingdom. Don’t doubt—God will deal with sin.
When the church was raptured, there was left behind on the earth the people who were religious but not saved. This false church became a political force to control the masses. Learn how this “harlot” as she is called (because she is not the bride of Christ) becomes used, abused, and finally eliminated in this ongoing drama of the Tribulation.
The first time Jesus said, “It is finished,” He was dying on the cross for our sins. Now He says it again as He draws the Great Tribulation to an end with a tremendous earthquake, like no one has ever experienced. But that’s not the end yet. Discover the purifying judgment from the Lord like never before in this study from Revelation 16.
If you’ve been waiting for the “Battle of Armageddon”—this is it. Only instead of a single battle, Armageddon is a war, extending the length of Israel, lasting three and a half years. It’s fought against the trinity of hell: Satan, Antichrist, and the False Prophet, who together make the armies of the world march against Israel, hoping to destroy God’s purposes on the earth. It ends with the Lord Jesus Christ’s return from heaven to establish His kingdom.
The Lord Jesus Christ is in full charge of the events that unfold in Revelation 15 and 16. Since He was the only one found worthy to open the seven-sealed book, He is the only one worthy to execute judgment against the followers of Antichrist who have received the mark of the beast. In this set of judgments, you’ll be reminded of the plagues of Egypt—only worse.
Angels play an important role in Revelation. In Revelation 15, we are introduced to a new series of seven angels with seven plagues in the seven bowls of wrath. The repetition of “seven” whispers to us of completeness. These seven angels leave heaven’s temple and the throne of mercy and act for God, administering justice instead of mercy.
We must face facts: Sin is an awful thing, it is in the world, and as sinners, we deserve judgment. That’s what the Tribulation is … it’s judgment. Only through the shed blood of Christ do we escape that judgment. God can’t tolerate sin, so He pours out His wrath on it. That’s what we’ll witness in Scripture in Revelation 14.
When we met Jesus in His first coming, He shed His blood for mankind. But now He comes in judgment for those who rejected it. Revelation 14 pictures Him treading down the wicked, and it is their blood that is shed. Jesus is the Savior of the world, but He’s also the Judge of all the world. In this ominous telling, we get a preview of the end.
How does the good news of the gospel and the bad news of judgment get proclaimed on the earth during the Great Tribulation? In the beginning, people are the messengers. By the end, the times will get so intense that only angels can get God’s messages to the world. We’ll learn about six different angels in this chapter.
What happens to God’s people during the Great Tribulation? We discover that the Shepherd who began with 144,000 sheep is the Lamb. All 144,000 are with Him—not one is lost. He redeemed them. He sealed them. He kept them. And now He’s standing with them as He begins His reign from Jerusalem. And those 144,000? They enter the millennial kingdom on earth singing with the heavenly chorus.
Today, in the world, the Holy Spirit is holding back evil. When He is removed from that office, evil men will be permitted to have their day. Revelation 13 describes that day when the Beast makes war and God tells His saints not to fight back, not to receive his mark, and not to despair. The narrative is building; don’t miss the glorious end!
What can or can’t Satan do? Only what God allows him to. When it looks as if everything is turned upside down, remember that. As the beasts are at their height of power under Satan’s puppet strings, remember that Jesus Christ is in full control for every day of that three and a half years of the Great Tribulation. Satan’s time is short.

I don't see The Gospel of John?
wow!!! I am dealing with depression and loneliness at the moment , and this is exactly what I need ! I'm speechless.
I once heard a pastor say with a touch of humor that, if you're down, you should probably stay away from Lamentations and go instead to the Thessalonian books. And, in gaining insight from Dr. McGee into how right on God allowed the people in this Church to be, I can see why! They were super-young believers whose only real struggle was with an accurate understanding of how God would end the present age - other than that, they sound like they are really established in their Faith by God's Grace and Power. They are a serious encouragement to me and my fam in how to live for and in Christ in the midst of a less-than-ideal world. Good stuff, by Mr. J. Vernon McGee! Btw, that same pastor said that, when Christians actually read the book of Lamentations, they should do so only after finishing the Thessalonian epistles. 😆
This book, I admit, is my least favorite book. I'm sure there's some very good insight that Mr. McGee can offer.
Love my faithful servant of the Lord!!!!
